DESCRIPTION:Title: The
semi-local adele class space and Weil positivity\nby Alain Connes (IH
ES\, College de France\, Ohio State University) as part of Columbia CUNY N
YU number theory seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nI will explain the results of two
recent papers in collaboration with Katia Consani: First on a strong inequ
ality showing that for the single archimedean place the Weil local contrib
ution is larger than the trace of the scaling action on the Sonin space. S
econd showing that the products of ratios of local factors are quasi-inner
functions (a notion that extends the usual notion of inner functions) and
this gives the analytic prerequisites to treat the Weil positivity in the
semi-local case using the Hilbert space framework associated to a finite
set of places in my selecta paper of 1998.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Spe
ctral gap in perfect algebraic groups over prime fields\nby Alireza Sa
lehi Golsefidy (UCSD) as part of Columbia CUNY NYU number theory seminar\n
\n\nAbstract\nSuppose $G$ is a connected algebraic $\\Bbb Q$-group which i
s perfect\; that means $G=[G\,G].$ Let $H$ be the largest semisimple quoti
ent of $G.$ We show that a family of Cayley graphs of $G(F_p)$ is a family
of expander graphs if and only if their quotients as Cayley graphs of $H(
F_p)$ form a family of expanders. This work extends a result of Lindenstra
uss and Varju where they prove a similar statement for the group of specia
l affine transformations. In combination with a result of Breuillard and G
amburd\, one gets new families of finite groups with strong uniform expans
ion. \n\n\\vskip 4pt\nIn the talk after defining the relevant terms\, we d
iscuss the method developed by Bourgain and Gamburd for studying random wa
lks in finite groups. Roughly this method says in the absence of large app
roximate subgroups in a group $G$\, a random walk in $G$ has spectral gap
if it can gain an initial entropy and has a Diophantine property. Next in
the talk it will be explain why in our problem we only need to prove the n
eeded Diophantine property. I will present how certain exponential cancell
ations\, uniform convexity of $\\Cal L^p$-spaces\, and a type of hypercont
ractivity inequality can help us obtain such a Diophantine property. \n\n\

DESCRIPTION:Title: Mot
ivic classes of classifying stacks of algebraic groups\nby Federico Sc
avia (University of British Columbia) as part of Columbia CUNY NYU number
theory seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nThe Grothendieck ring of algebraic stacks wa
s introduced by Ekedahl in \n2009. It may be viewed as a localization of t
he more classical Grothendieck \nring of varieties. If $G$ is a finite gro
up\, then the class\n $\\{BG\\}$ of its \nclassifying stack $BG$ is equal
to 1 in many cases\, but there are examples \nfor which $\\{BG\\}\\neq 1.$
When $G$ is connected\, $\\{BG\\}$ has been computed in many \ncases in
a long series of papers\, and it always turned out that $\\{BG\\}*\\{G\\}
=1.$ \nWe exhibit the first example of a connected group $G$ for which $\\
{BG\\}*\\{G\\}\\neq \n1.$ As a consequence\, we produce an infinite famil
y of non-constant finite \n\\'etale group schemes $A$ such that $\\{BA\\}\
\neq 1.$\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Equ

jan (Stanford University) as part of Columbia CUNY NYU number theory semin
ar\n\n\nAbstract\nSuppose for each prime $p$ we are given a set $A_p$ (pos
sibly\nempty) of residue classes mod $p$. Use these and the Chinese Remain
der\nTheorem to form a set $A_q$ of residue classes mod $q$\, for any inte
ger $q$.\nUnder very mild hypotheses\, we show that for a typical integer
$q$\, the\nresidue classes in $A_q$ will become equidistributed. The proto
typical\nexample (which this generalizes) is Hooley's theorem that the roo
ts of\na polynomial congruence mod $n$ are equidistributed on average over
$n$. I\nwill also discuss generalizations of such results to higher\ndime
nsions\, and when restricted to integers with a given number of\nprime fac

DESCRIPTION:Title: On
a conjecture of Gross and Zagier on algebraicity\nby Tonghai Yang (Un
iversity of Wisconsin) as part of Columbia CUNY NYU number theory seminar\
n\n\nAbstract\nThe automorphic Green function $G_s(z_1\, z_2)$ for $SL_2(\
\Bbb Z)$\, also called the resolvent kernel function for $\\Gamma$\, plays
an important role in both analytic and algebra number theory\, e.g. in t
he Gross-Zagier formula and Gross-Kohnen-Zagier formula. It is transcenden
tal in nature\, even its CM values are transcendental. It is quite inter
esting to have the following conjectural algebraicity property. \nFor a we
akly holomorphic modular form $f(\\tau)=\\sum\\limits_{m} c_f(m) q^m$ of w
eight $-2j$ ($j \\ge 0$)\, consider the linear combination \n\\vskip -1pt\
n$$\nG_{1+j\, f}(z_1\, z_2) = \\sum_{m >0} c_f(-m) m^j G_{1+j}^m(z_1\, z_2
)\n$$\n\\vskip -1pt\n\\noindent\nwhere $G_s^m(z_1\, z_2)$ is the Hecke cor
respondence of $G_s(z_1\, z_2)$ under the Hecke operator $T_m$ on the firs
t (or second) variable. Gross-Zagier conjectured in 1980s that for any
two CM points $z_i$ of discriminants $d_i$\n$$\n(d_1 d_2)^{j/2} G_{j+1\, f
} (z_1\, z_2) = \\frac{w_{d_1}w_{d_2}}{4}\\cdot \\log|\\alpha|\n$$\nfor so
me algebraic number $\\alpha$\, where $w_i$ is the number of units in $O_
{d_i}$. In this talk\, I will describe some progress on this conjecture. I
f time permits\, I will also explain how one method to attack this conject
ure also produces an analogue of the Gross-Kohnen-Zagier theorem in Kuga v
arieties. \n\nIn the RTG talk\, I will explain regularized theta lifting (
Borcherds product) and their CM value formula.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: A
subspace theorem for manifolds\nby Emmanuel Breuillard (University of
Cambridge) as part of Columbia CUNY NYU number theory seminar\n\n\nAbstrac
t\nIn the late 90's Kleinbock and Margulis solved a long-standing conjectu
re due to Sprindzuk regarding diophantine approximation on submanifolds o
f $\\Bbb R^n$. Their method used homogeneous dynamics via the so-called n
on-divergence estimates for unipotent flows on the space of lattices. Thi
s new point of view has revolutionized metric diophantine approximation. I
n this talk I will discuss how these ideas can be used to revisit the cele
brated Subspace Theorem of W. Schimidt\, which deals diophantine approxima
tion for linear forms with algebraic coefficients and is a far-reaching ge
neralization of Roth's theorem. Combined with a certain understanding of t
he geometry at the heart of Schmidt's Subspace Theorem\, in particular the
notion of Harder-Narasimhan filtration and related ideas borrowed from Ge
ometric Invariant Theory\, the Kleinbock-Margulis method leads to a metric
version of the Subspace Theorem\, where the linear forms are allowed to d
epend on a parameter. This result encompasses much previous work about dio
phantine exponents of submanifolds. If time permits I will also discuss co
nsequences for diophantine approximation on Lie groups. Joint work with Ni
colas de Saxc\\'e (Paris 13).\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Ef
fective height bounds for odd-degree totally real points on some curves\nby Levent Alpoge (Columbia University) as part of Columbia CUNY NYU num
ber theory seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nLet $\\mathcal O$ be an order in a total
ly real field $F.$\n Let $K$ be an odd-degree totally real field. Let $S$
be a finite set of places of $K.$ We study $S$-integral $K$-points on inte
gral models $H_\\mathcal O$ of Hilbert modular varieties because not only
do said varieties admit complete curves (thus reducing questions about suc
h curves' $K$-rational points to questions about $S$-integral $K$-points o
n these integral models)\, they also have their $S$-integral $K$-points co
ntrolled by known cases of modularity\, in the following way. First assume
for clarity modularity of all $\\text{\\rm GL}_2$-type abelian varieties
over $K$ --- then all $S$-integral $K$-points on $H_{\\mathcal O}$ \n aris
e from K-isogeny factors of the \n $[F:\\mathbb Q]$-th power of the Jacobi
an of a single Shimura curve with level structure (by Jacquet-Langlands tr
ansfer). By a generalization of an argument of von Kanel\, isogeny estimat
es of Raynaud/Masser-Wustholz and Bost's lower bound on the Faltings heigh
t suffice to then bound the heights of all points in $H_{\\mathcal O}(\\ma
thcal O_{K\,S}).$ \n As for the assumption\, though modularity is of cours
e not known in this generality\, by following Taylor's (sufficiently expli
cit for us) proof of his potential modularity theorem we are able to make
the above unconditional.\n\n\n \nFinally we use the hypergeometric abelian
varieties associated to the arithmetic triangle group $\\Delta(3\,6\,6)$
to give explicit examples of curves to which the above height bounds apply
. Specifically\, we prove that\, for $a\\in \\overline{\\Bbb Q}^\\times$\n
totally real of odd degree (e.g. $a = 1$)\, for all $L/\\Bbb Q(a)$ totally
real of odd degree and $S$ a finite set of places of $L\,$ there is an ef
fectively computable $c = c_{a\,{\\scriptscriptstyle L}\,{\\scriptscriptst
yle S}}\\in \\Bbb Z^+$ such that all $x\,y\\in L$ satisfying $x^6 + 4y^3
= a^2 $ satisfy $h(x) < c.$ Note that this gives infinitely many curves fo
r each of which Faltings' theorem is now effective over infinitely many nu
mber fields.\n

RKOFF TRIPLES\, NIELSON EQUIVALENCE\, AND NONABELIAN LEVEL STRUCTURES\
nby William Chen (Columbia University) as part of Columbia CUNY NYU number
theory seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nFollowing Bourgain\, Gamburd\, and Sarnak\,
we say that the Markoff equation $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 − 3xyz = 0$ satisfies
strong approximation at a prime p if its integral points surject onto its
$F_p$ points. In 2016\, Bourgain\, Gamburd\, and Sarnak were able to esta
blish strong approximation at all but a sparse (but infinite) set of prime
s\, and conjectured that it holds at all primes. Building on their results
\, in this talk I will explain how to establish strong approximation for a
ll but a finite and effectively computable set of primes\, thus reducing t
he conjecture to a finite computation. Using the connection between the Ma
rkoff surface and the character variety of SL(2) representations of the fu
ndamental group of a punctured torus\, this result becomes a corollary of
a more general divisibility theorem on the cardinalities of Nielsen equiva
lence classes of generating pairs of finite groups\, which in turn follows
from a simple observation regarding the degree of a certain line bundle o
n the moduli stack of elliptic curves with nonabelian level structures. As
time allows we will also describe some applications.\n

FECTIVE OBSTRUCTION TO LIFTING ALGEBRAIC CLASSES FROM POSITIVE CHARACTERIS

eminar\n\n\nAbstract\nWe will present two methods to compute upper bounds
on the number of algebraic cycles that lift from characteristic $p$ to cha
racteristic zero. For an abelian variety\, we show that we can recover the
decomposition of its endomorphism algebra from two well-chosen Frobenius
polynomials. We then focus on how to obtain similar bounds by relying on a
single prime reduction\, and instead consider p-adic thickenings. More pr
ecisely\, we show how to compute a $p$-adic approximation of the obstructi
on map on the algebraic classes of a finite reduction for an abelian varie
ty or a smooth hypersurface. This gives an upper bound on the “middle Pi
card number” of a hypersurface or similarly an upper bound on the endomo
rphism algebra or the Neron-Severi group of an abelian variety.\nThis is j

as in cubic Gauss sums\nby Maksym Radziwill (Caltech) as part of Colum
bia CUNY NYU number theory seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nI will discuss recent wo
rk with Alex Dunn. Conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis we
establish a conjecture of S. Patterson from 1978 concerning the existence
of a bias in cubic Gauss sums. This explains a well-known numerical bias f
irst observed by Kummer in 1846. The proof relies on the use of metaplecti
c forms for the cubic cover of $GL_2$ and on a new ”dispersion” estima
te for cubic Gauss sums. Along the way we show that the cubic large sieve
of Heath-Brown is sharp\, contrary to widely held expectations. I will exp
lain the tools alluded to above\, the rationale for the tools and the main
moments of the proof.\n

incare duality for modular representations of p-adic groups and Hecke alge

Y NYU number theory seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nThe mod-$p$ representations the
ory of $p$-adic reductive groups (such as $\\textrm{GL}_2(\\mathbb{Q}_p)$)
is one of the foundations of the rapidly developing mod-$p$ local Langlan
ds program. However\, many constructions from the case of complex coeffici
ents are quite poorly behaved in the mod-$p$ setting\, and it becomes nece

and discuss the construction of a Poincare duality spectral sequence relat

ating the p-adic height pairing of the arithmetic diagonal cycles to the f
irst central derivative (along the cyclotomic direction) of a p-adic Ranki
n–Selberg L-function associated to cuspidal automorphic representations.
In the good ordinary case we are able to prove the conjecture\, at least
when the ramifications are mild at inert primes. We deduce some applicatio

tract\nA hyperbolic surface is a surface with metric of constant curvature
-1. The spectral gap between the first two eigenvalues of the Laplacian o
n a closed hyperbolic surface contains a good deal of information about th
e surface\, including its connectivity\, dynamical properties of its geode
sic flow\, and error terms in geodesic counting problems. For arithmetic h
yperbolic surfaces the spectral gap is also the subject of one of the bigg
est open problems in automorphic forms: Selberg’s eigenvalue conjecture.
\n\nIt was an open problem from the 1970s whether there exist a sequence o
f closed hyperbolic surfaces with genera tending to infinity and spectral
gap tending to 1/4. (The value 1/4 here is the asymptotically optimal one.
) Recently we proved that this is indeed possible. I’ll discuss the very
interesting background of this problem in detail as well as some ideas of
the proof.\n\nThis is joint work with Will Hide.\n

d to have constant\naverage size in families with a given Galois closure g
roup (when $p$\ndoesn't divide the order of the group). In general\, the

$k=0$ are not planar if the prime is congruent to 1 modulo 4\, or congrue
